A progressive, 3-time winner as a 3-y-o, FLYING WEST arrives here having run right up to her best when finding only an upwardly-mobile sort too strong at Sandown last month. She's operating from the plum draw, and the ease in trip is expected to hold no fears, so she can come out on top. Rani of Jhansi, on handicap debut, and Coul Queen, returned to this venue/softer ground, head up the dangers.
